John Albert Gardner III received a very light sentence in 2000 after prosecutors ignored a a psychiatrist’s warning and suggestion of a stronger sentence.
Prosecutors noted John Gardner’s lack of criminal history, and tossed in the standard “wanted to spare the victim the trauma of testifying” card when seeking the five year prison term for the sexual assault of a 13 year old girl.
Chelsea King, 17, has been missing five days, her clothes have been found, and reports are coming in now that a body has been found in the search area.
John Albert Gardner was arrested in connection with Chelsea King’s disappearance on Sunday, February 28th, 2010.
Chelsea King, John Albert Gardner: Body OF Missing Teen Found?
John Albert Gardner III faced an eleven year maximum sentence under a plea agreement arranged a decade ago; however lenient prosecutors urged only six of those and the Judge complied.
Gardner plead guilty to assaulting a 13 year old girl. He served five years. A mere five years.
Prosecutor’s acknowledge in an eleven page memo that John Albert Gardner “never expressed one scintilla of remorse for his attack upon the victim.”
Dr. Matthew Carroll gave his opinion in the sentencing memo also, stating: “There is no known treatment for an individual that sexually assaults girls and does not admit to it in any way.”
This psychiatrist warned the powers that be that Gardner would re-offend. He pleaded for a 30 year prison term.
Now Chelsea King, 17, beloved daughter, honor student, athlete, friend to all, has gone missing and John Gardner is behind bars. It’s expected that he will be charged with rape and murder tomorrow morning, Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010.
A body was found just a few yards from where Chelsea’s shoe was found. The body was in a shallow grave and is assumed to be that of Chelsea King. The body was located shortly after 4:00pm, EST.
There is strong physical evidence tying this rape and murder to John Gardner; however, please remember that in our judicial system, he is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. He is currently being held in solitary confinement, for his protection of course.
Police are also looking for a link between John Gardner and 14 year old, still missing Amber Dubois.
Chelsea King, John Albert Gardner: Body OF Missing Teen Found? is just the latest in a series of young women being kidnapped, raped and murdered.
What a sad day in our country when a vibrant, bright and beautiful young woman can’t even jog in broad daylight. I won’t call this phenomena a war on women, as I often hear. I do however think it’s an undeclared war on society in general.
I sense change is coming. It’s just a shame that Chelsea King had to die before it is enacted. Our children are priceless and precious; it’s time we showed these murdering rapists that we are not tolerating this anymore.
We offer our heartfelt sympathy to Chelsea King’s family and loved ones.
Your thoughts?

@Jeef: Thank you for breaking down and essentially conceding that we are right. That must have been really hard for you to do and that makes it all the more enjoyable for the rest of us.
Since you don’t care about your own kids I guess you won’t mind when one of your best techs rapes and murders them, huh?

@Meranda: The girl was thirteen; she was in eighth grade. He sexually assaulted, beat her up, tried to strangle her. Doesn’t sound all that statutory to me.

Jo-Anne, what you stated I did not know. That was the crux of the question. Not in any way giving a pass to anybody, believe me. The question was relevant and important. Thanks for addressing it.
“the child…was severely beaten.”

Ashley, since I have never seen my kids I could care less what happens to them. Now that I’ve got you all worked up I can see my work is done here. Wasn’t that entertaining? You just go back to your boring married little goody two shoes life. My 2 perverted friends and I are off to the nudie bar to have a beer with Al Bundy! See ya in Hell!

To “Cris”:
Your comments are of the type that come from double standard pushing dike communists who epitomize hatred and embrace sexism. If it were up to me, I’d shoot your treasonous discriminatory hypocritical ugly anti-American and anti-Family ass in the skull and drag your body down the highway. I kid you not. Keep pushing, you divisive speech-code pushing educationally isolated nitwit, and see what happens. As Americans remember who they are, your days are numbered.

@Jeef: Oh don’t you worry about me, I’m not at all worked up. You’re the angry one shouting profanities about three-holed conservatives, and glory holes.
And yes, I do know what you are talking about.
I also know that even if you don’t post again that you will come back to view my response, because that’s just what attention seekers like you do.
In the meantime, have fun at the nudie bar. I’m sure you don’t actually have kids because you’d have to pay a hooker to do anything with you and we all know they’re smart enough to use protection so they don’t have to worry about losing their only means of income.
May I have the name of your shop so I can make sure to never set foot in it myself? It would be much appreciated.

@Jeef: I almost forgot…you must be a character on a long-forgotten television series because Al Bundy is not a real person! Ted Bundy, however, was. Perhaps that is who you are confusing Al Bundy with? Well, Ted Bundy is dead. So either way you are living in a fantasyland. Dollars to doughnuts, you’re one of the sick bastards in the shop you supposedly own.
And although I’m sure you were trying to make a “funny”, your level of sarcasm is that of a ten year old’s. Not amusing at all, just stale and copied from your fat mama.

Castration. Plain and simple.
March 4th, 2010 at 2:31 pm
Well said, Ashley!
March 4th, 2010 at 2:33 pm
@Meranda..didn’t mean to sound snippy…wrongly assumed everyone knew that about the 13 year old. I apologize.
